The design of synthetic developmental programs for multicellular mammalian systems is a cornerstone of synthetic biology. The programs hinge on the construction of gene regulatory circuits that ...

Over 3,000 generations of laboratory evolution, researchers watched as their model organism, 'snowflake yeast,' began to adapt as multicellular individuals. In new research, the team shows how ...

Biological systems are highly complex due to the intricate spatial organizations of different types of cells and the heterogeneous nature of living cells. Characterizing the phenotypic behavior of ...

Bacterial superorganisms must evolve defenses to fight off infections, and microbiologists found that they use a weapons cache coincidentally similar to that of the human immune system. “The [DGR ...

The mystery of how multicellular life evolved has long baffled scientists, who've spent years trying to understand how solitary single-celled organisms began living in unison and triggered the ...

During early development, tissues and organs begin to bloom through the shifting, splitting, and growing of many thousands of ...

A giant, trumpet-shaped cell that skulks in the bottom of ponds has given scientists a new clue about how single-celled creatures may have taken the first steps towards evolving into multicellular ...

Three-dimensional multicellular human liver model: For the first time, a 3D human organoid model, developed with liver tissue ...

Researchers suggest that MultiCell could potentially be used to discern early patterns of disease, such as in asthma.
